Dashboards - Attendance: Enhancements to Settings and New Ethnicity pie chart

Home > Attendance Dashboard

The following enhancements have been made to the Attendance Dashboard:

  • Settings button visibility: The settings button on the top right corner will be made more prominent with a blue background, ensuring users can easily find it. 
  • Settings > Report Group:

      • Updated dropdown labels - Labels have been updated to align with the latest DfE guidance. Any criteria referencing ‘Non-LAC’ or ‘LAC’ has been replaced with the updated terminology:
            • LAC will be replaced with Child Looked After
            • Non-LAC will be replaced with Child Not Looked After
      • Enhanced Search functionality - Users no longer need to enter the first character to search for a value. For example: searching for "(Y) (13/14) Child Looked After" can now be done by typing any combination of letters in the value e.g. "aft".

  • New Ethnicity pie chart: A new pie chart has been added to show the percentage attendance breakdown by ethnicity groups for the selected date range. Once an ethnicity group is selected, a data table will be displayed below the pie chart as per existing functionality in other charts. Ethnic groups with a percentage below 1.5% will be categorised under "Other Ethnic Group" for this pie chart. This chart shows that of the pupils who were classed as being in Attendance - 36.4% were White - British.

  • New Ethnicity column: A new Ethnicity column has been added to ALL data tables.
